Grape – Chenin Blanc

With the sun beaming down and Summer finally feeling like it’s in full swing, we thought it was time to shout about some of our favourite kinds of wine to drink in the sun:
Pink and red chillers!
People often ask us about the lesser-known ‘red-chiller’ category, unsure of which wines best suit some time on ice. So, we thought we’d line up some of our favourites to take the guesswork out for you.
From the light, mineral driven rosé’s we know and love, to wild rosados with a little more flesh on their bones, we’ve got deep pet-nat rosé, juicy light reds and category defying field blends.
Thirst-quenching bottles best enjoyed straight from the ice bucket, drunk perfectly chilled.
That’s your picnic-wine sorted!

PIAK! Rosé 2023

This is a dry, fruity rosé with lots going on. Flesh and texture from the Chenin, herbal cherry fruit from the Cab Franc and a lovely bit of fragrant spice from the d'Aunis. Fruitier and slightly wilder than the last vintage but still dry and very refreshing. Very tasty stuff! Find out more.
